That’s why we’re going to be offering Dave Ramsey’s Financial Peace University class at Vernonia Christian Church starting February 6, 2011. It’s the most practical stuff out there and the most fun you’ll ever have learning about money. Each weekly session starts with Dave Ramsey teaching on video and is followed by a powerful small group discussion. You’ll see that you are DEFINITELY not alone if you’re struggling in this area. And even if you’re one of the few who isn’t struggling, you’ll still benefit from this powerful material. It teaches you how to apply biblical principles to the way you handle money and how to start truly managing all of the resources God has given you. This class breaks the process down into easy steps that will help no matter where you are. You’ve just got to Serving since 1953 Fuiten, Rose & Hoyt Funeral Home Need a Lawyer?
